On a cold winter day, the outside temperature is -20°C and the inside temperature is maintained at 20°C. There is a net heat flow to the outside through the walls, roof, etc., of 25 kW. What is the rate of increase of the entropy of the universe as a result of this heat flow?
Okay,
so
Shot =
25000 / 293 = 85.3 W/K
Scold
= 25000 / 253 = 98.8 W/K
Therefore,
rate of increase of the entropy of the universe
S = 98.8 -
85.3
S = 13 W/K

On a cold day, 26100 J of heat leaks out of a house. The inside temperature is 22 °C, and the outside temperature is -20 °C. What is the increase in the entropy of the universe that this heat loss produces?
On a cold day, 27600 J of heat leaks out of a house. The inside temperature is 25 °C, and the outside temperature is -20 °C. What is the increase in the entropy of the universe that this heat loss produces?
On a cold winter day, the outside temperature is –5.0 °C while the interior of a well-insulated garage is maintained at 20.0 °C by an electric heater. Assume the walls have a total area of 75 m2, a thickness of 0.15 m, and a thermal conductivity of 0.042 W/(m · C°). What is the cost to heat the garage for six hours at these temperatures if the cost of electricity is $ 0.11/kWh? Note: 1 kWh = 3.6 × 106...
On a cold winter day where the outside temperature is -10o C, a heat pump provides 20 kW to heat a house to 20o C. The heat pump has a COPHP of 4 at the maximum power. The next day a storm brings the outside temperature down to −15o C. If the ratio of COPHP and the reversible COPrev for day 1 and day 2 is the same, COPHP for both days is the same, and that the house loses...
The temperature difference between the inside and the outside of a building on a cold winter day is 51°F. (a) Express this difference on the Celsius scale. 25 x Review the relationships between temperature scales. Note that the value is a temperature difference, not a single temperature measurement. °C (b) Express this difference on the Kelvin scale. K
A heat pump is to be used to heat a house in winter and then
reversed to cool the house in summer. The interior space is to be
maintained at 20oC. Heat transfer through walls and roof is
estimated to be χ = 0.525 kJ/sec per degree difference in
temperature between inside and outside. (6a) (8p) In winter if the
outside temperature is 5oC, what is the minimum power required to
drive the heat pump? (6b) (12p) For the same...
The temperature difference between the inside and the outside of a home on a cold winter day is 57.0°F. (a) Express this difference on the Celsius scale. (b) Express this difference on the Kelvin scale.
On a cold winter's day heat leaks slowly out of a house at the rate of 22.5 kW . If the inside temperature is 23 ∘C, and the outside temperature is -14.0 ∘C, find the rate of entropy increase.
5.75 A heating system must maintain the interior of a building at TH = 20 degree C when the outside temperature is T = 2 degree C. If the rate of heat transfer from the building through its walls and roof is 16.4 kW, determine the electrical power required, in kW, to heat the building using (a) electrical-resistance heating, (b) a heat pump whose coefficient of performance is 3.0, (c) a reversible heat pump operating between hot and cold reservoirs...
Temperature inside a house is kept equal to 20°C. Temperature outside is 10°C. What about the rate of heat outflow across the walls if temperature outside decreases to O°C a rises two times b decreases two times c. rises four times d. decreases four times e. there is no impact on heat flow rate Explain your choice
